The Power of God and Anime, Episode 11: One Piece and Thanksgiving

Beneath the Tangles Podcast Network

Holy revival, Batman! It’s a week from Thanksgiving and a perfect time to consider how many of us struggle to give thanks. Nami’s actions when fighting Arlong in One Piece set the stage for Mike’s thought on how easily it is to miss the spirit of gratitude when things aren’t going well, when our blessings are relatively minor, and in the face of obvious blessings. He also chats about the play he’s working on, the revival service he conducted worship for, and more on this episode of The Power of God and Anime podcast!

Anime Trivia!

In the anime My Senpai is Annoying, what is the name of the dolphin Sakurai thinks looks like Kazuma?
